PhD in Robotics Research at the University of Houston

Multiple positions available for Spring '26 and Fall '26 admissions! Students will be fully sponsored through research funding or TA positions. Perspective students should submit an application to the University of Houston Computer Science Department. More information is available at https://uh.edu/nsm/computer-science/graduate/admissions/. In your application, please mention my name!

To keep things consistent for all applicants, I typically do not interview or respond to requests before I receive your full application. Once I receive your application (from the UH system), I will contact applicants and schedule interviews. With that said, I do read every email and inquiry carefully and thoroughly, and will keep your interests in mind if a suitable position arises! Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.
